After transmigrating, Luo Yanqing found herself an orphan, but at least she had a golden finger: the Virtue System.
It was based on the idea that the highest virtue is like water, and that a gentleman should be like water.
Its purpose was to turn its Host into an elegant divine lord renowned throughout the Three Realms.
The catch was that this System had been designed for creatures of the male sex, while Luo Yanqing was very much a young woman.
The System had a major bug.
Luo Yanqing gazed at her beautiful reflection in the stream and rolled her eyes at the sky.
The System replied, [Host, this little error is no big deal. Who says women are inferior to men? Women can succeed too!]
Luo Yanqing put up with it.
But...
System: [Host, the Virtue System has been activated. Please select your final reward.
One: Three thousand wives and concubines, all as beautiful as flowers.
Two: Give birth to 108 children in one go and enjoy a house full of descendants.
Three: Obtain the number one immortal sect in the world, with vast grounds, splendid golden halls, abundant spirit veins, and spirit beasts and plants everywhere.]
Luo Yanqing's temple throbbed. How was she supposed to choose? Through gritted teeth, she asked, "Can I refuse to choose and instead get a chance to file a complaint against you?"
System: [No. Host may refuse the reward, but the work still has to be done.]
Luo Yanqing drew a deep breath. "The third one!"
System: [Host's cultivation path confirmed! Loading mission module...]
A long time later, when Luo Yanqing had finally become the number one gentleman in the cultivation world, the System finally received an update. Its bug was fixed, and it became the Fair Maiden System, whose beauty could make the moon hide and flowers blush.
Luo Yanqing: ...
Hey! Headquarters? I'd like to file a complaint.
Other people transmigrate with a golden finger, slaughter their way through everything, and achieve great things. But because of her System, Luo Yanqing has to hold back at every turn and has also been saddled with a huge headache.
At other sects, people rally together, disciples work hard, and the sect flourishes.
But as the junior martial uncle of Wuliang Cliff, she is either cleaning up a mess or on her way to one. It feels like her sect is full of huskies running wild.
The disciples quietly grumble with their heads bowed: The second brother is no better than the eldest, and the junior martial uncle is cut from the same cloth. Just what kind of young woman disguises herself as a man and becomes the world's number one divine lord? She talks about persuading people with reason and being magnanimous, but she's even better with her fists. Otherwise, how could she keep the disciples of Wuliang Cliff in line?
And why is it that every time their reputation gets worse by a point, the junior martial uncle's reputation improves by a point? Aren't they all members of the same sect?
Why is everyone feeling sorry for the junior martial uncle?
And also...
The few people the junior martial uncle has befriended are especially suspicious.
The System took a look and silently assigned some tags.
Person One: loyal guard type, max combat ability, max cooking skills, fully equipped for domestic life, Host satisfaction: five stars.
Person Two: seductive villain type, obsessed with driving the Host to her death, max intelligence, Host satisfaction: one star.
Person Three: perfect friend type, neither wholly good nor evil, deep and calculating, Host satisfaction: five stars.
Person Four: ...
It figured that whether the Host wanted love and hate tangled together or a deep, devoted romance, she had plenty of options. There was no need to worry about being alone for the rest of her life.
Theme: Uphold justice throughout the Three Realms and build a better future together.
